Their ambitious goal is to bring the computer into the world in order to augment existing games or to even come up with hitherto impossible or unthought-of forms of entertainment.

The paper contributes a unifying and integrating classification of the respective terms that relates different states of reality to the relevant dimensions and game elements.}}, author = {{Hinske, Steve and Lampe, Matthias and Magerkurth, Carsten and Röcker, Carsten}}, booktitle = {{A reader for pervasive gaming research / Vol. 1.
